Ireland Midfielder Still a Doubt

12 November 2014

James McCarthy will have a scan on his injured hamstring today after missing Republic of Ireland training for the second day in a row.
He picked up a knock during Everton's 1-1 draw with Sunderland last weekend.
Ireland manager Martin O'Neill says he will give the midfielder every chance to prove his fitness.
McCarthy spent today's session walking laps of the pitch with the team doctor.
